1Opinion of the Court
BAUER, Circuit Judge.
Loralee and Charles Vasquez brought this action under 42 U.S.C. §§ 1983,1985, against several members of the Cicero Police Department and one member of the Cicero Fire Department. The district court dismissed the section 1985 claim on the pleadings and then granted the defendants’ motion for summary judgment on the section 1983 claim. At the heart of the district court’s summary judgment decision was its finding that the Vasquezes suffered no constitutional injury. The Vasquezes challenge that finding and appeal the court’s decision.
